    That policy only applies to civilian politicians and whatnot.Any military leader or commander is a valid target during a conflict.

    We're not "at war" though. No war was declared by Congress. That in mind they are not military leaders in a military conflict.

    Quote from Izuno

    never heard of that policy. i wonder if there is any policy on that one way or another.

    We have one, it was put into effect in 1978. However in typical fashion we just came up with a new word for assassination (like torture is now "renditioning" :roll: ). We have a terrible record at carrying out assassinations.

    We're taking a trip down memory lane! Anyone interested in working on a multiplayer Quake2 mod for the hell of it? We're looking for a few dedicated individuals to donate some time to help generate some maps for us.

    The game is team multiplayer with a CTF flavor and even a hint of RTS/FPS (but it's such a small hint, more like a dash, really). If you're interested, PM me or hit me up on AIM: Punkposteh

    I'll supply you with a heaping helping of textures at your request and then we can all play this fun little mod together like a good group of friends should, with shotguns and nail grenades.

    The mod's name is "Infrared" although there isn't any infrared in it. It's a mockery-mod that started out of a late night conversation about how modding has gone beyond the skill and time limits of your average modder these days. So we sat down, churned out a weapon list, some gameplay ideas and thus was Infrared devised.

    16 players, 8 per team, and one Commandante per team. The Commandante is the exact same as other players (referred to as Soldiers) except that he can drop a Dispenser. That Dispenser allows players to use "Experience" points to buy new and different weaponry. You collect "Experience" points by collecting the gibs of your fallen foes. Everyone gibs upon death, regardless of how it happens.

    Oh and did I mention explodium? There's explodium in the game. It's what you're trying to steal from the other team. Get the explodium, bring it home to your team's base and you get a point. Hooray!

    Also your main gun can be dropped (but not picked up) at any time as a turret. It'll fire whatever you had added to it at the time, so drop it carefully.

    List of weapons so far:

    Knife: A knife. Hooray!

    Pistol: A pistol. Hooray!

    Generic Rifle Gun: Semi-automatic rifle.

    Rifle Gun w/ Rubber Bullets add-on: Rubber Bullets do no damage but they push the enemy around the map and make it a generaly hell to get from point A to point B in a straight line. The turret form can be a hilarious means of defending your base from explodium thieves.

    Rifle Gun w/ Machine-gun add-on: Your typical lead-spitting machinegun.

    Rifle Gun w/ Shotgun add-on: Makes a big explosion of pellets in front of the player. Very short firing distance but devestating up close.

    Rifle Gun w/ Flak add-on: Semi-automatic that fires a large shell that explodes into shrapnel upon impact with anything. Great for clearing bunkers.

    Rifle Gun w/ Sniper Scope add-on: Slow-firing, zoomable weapon that deals out one-hit kills. The turret version is very slow firing but good at killing troublesome thieves.

    Rifle Gun w/ Proximity Mine add-on: Fires little mines wherever you want them. They'll stick there and emit a little whine when an enemy walks near, then if they get closer, BOOM. The turret for this oughta be hilarious.

    Rifle Gun w/ Drunk Missile add-on: Fires a few rockets along an unsure path towards the enemy. Big time damage, big time fun. Do not use in enclosed space.

    if you rotated parts of the uv 45 degrees and made teh face bigger you could have gotten alot more pixel density imo

    And a sloppier skin, but I think now we're talking personal preference :F

    postman, looks cool but why did you only use like 2/3 of the uv ;o?

    Because splitting up the UVs on the body would've led to some crappy seams

    Quote from Sa74n

    how do you know, postman?i dont think one should pull down a whole project where there are 15+ people putting their time into making a game (or anything else) just because you're pissed on one of them. its childish (then again that is my own opinion). and what did he do to you?

    ND is everything but a vaporwave.

    He tried repeatedly to recruit me to his mod but I took one look at how he ran things and how much he wanted from people and said "No thanks." To which he responded with a whole lot of self-righteous "Who needs you anyways" and condesending shitty attitude.

    I make mods for fun. Working on a fucking work time table in a "professional mod" atmosphere isn't fun.

    Again, I have sympathy for the people working on the project, just not DaveL. The guy is a pompous windbag.

    Quote from Skjalg

    I dont get why you are all so pissed at DaveL for, what he did was just show that the stuff is fake, and that they are selling the skin before they've shot the bear...

    DaveL made a lot of enemies in the mod community by just being a jerk in general and being ridiculously full of himself.

    Quote from curman

    i wish someone would just post some logs with DaveL talking

    He loves smilies and generally uses them in a condesending fashion, ie:

    Postman: Hey

    DaveL: Saw your work on your portfolio, very cool.

    Postman: Thanks

    DaveL: So would you be interested in working on an HL2 mod?

    Postman: Not really, I'm busy with my own stuff and loads of stuff at work, but thanks anyhow.

    DaveL: You sure?

    Postman: Yeah, sorry man.

    DaveL: Okay, it's not like we needed you anyways

    Quote from Section_Ei8ht

    I think this guy is over-reacting. Everyone does this these days. The most important thing is that everyone who has their work featured on this magazine now has something really kick-ass and impressive to put in their portfolios.

    I just think DaveL is a gigantic fucking twat. He runs his mod in the worst, most corporate, least fun way imaginable. I swear to god he sacrificed some orphans to even get people interested in the idea to begin with.

    The guys have portfolio pieces but it's always depressing to work on something and have it never release.

  • Ouch...

    • June 2, 2006 at 11:46 PM

    I fucking knew that was a go-nowhere project. DaveL is a gigantic douchebag to boot. I feel sorry for the people that spent time on it, but not his stupendous ego.
